QuoteFeck sake what a load of dung. I may fill it in then and hope i aint called

I assure you that you will not get called.

Just thinking would i not be exempt from this when working in legal profession? I actually think i would be, sure i could end up sitting on a case i knew or knew Barristers in the other side. Happy days must go look into that

Id love to do Jury Service, it's better than sitting in work and you could have the potential to send someone down :D
Be nice to the people you meet on the way up, because you may meet them on the way back down.

Like everyone else, if you were selected, you would be asked if you knew anyone involved in the case before it started.

But TG said if she didn't like the look of the person...doesn't mean she knew them just didn't like the look of them...

Just on that TG what if this guy was tall dark and handsome (like myself) and was up on a rape case (not like myself) would you have him innocent in your head from day one ;)

Do you have some fascination with me or "prods"? How many of them 83 posts of yours refer to either?

I like to see the fairways more narrow, then everyone would have to play from the rough, not just me
